Well, it's already pretty well known to many that he's a piece of shit, so would you expect anything less?

I haven't seen anything on the national news, but it's definitely a local issue there.

Heck, I'm just happy he wasn't using a pay-to-play connection to get one. If he wants to take off a day and wait in line like everyone else, then more power to him.

Jendrzejewska said that was no excuse. She could not leave her building when working for Philadelphia, and if she had she would have been fired."So, it's only for certain employees that they have to be at their desk and they can't leave the building?" Jendrzejewska retorted.

"If you have a workstation and it's important for you to be at that work station in order for you to do your job, then you should be at that workstation," Street said.
The woman has never heard of vacation?

She probably has an important job that people depend on. Street doesn't.

I agree it should be and he should, but if he takes a week off the city still functions. Nobody would know he was gone if it wasn't on the news.

Hacking the iPhone.
Quote:
Holy cow. Those guys at fusion.osx86.hu/#iphone are geniuses. Late yesterday, I downloaded a copy of iASign, their new iPhone activation tool. Right now, at this second, my iPhone just made its first call using the SIM from my disposable Cingular phone with its $10 card. After, I dialed *777# and it told me I've got $9.25 left on my account. The phone number in Settings -> Phone shows the proper number for the disposable phone (versus the one I activated with the iPhone PickYourPlan).

Huh, indeed.

With all due respect to people that bought the iPhone when it went on sale, fuck you. You had to have it when it first came out. You wanted the damned thing so bad, you shelled out (in the end, a minimum of) $2000 for it. What the fuck are you complaining for?

You just got F'd in the A!

I want to thank all the early adopters of the world. You keep the market going and the manufacturers in business until I'm able to afford this stuff.

I'm still waiting patiently for digital high definition wide screen TVs to come way down in price. It will happen. I'm expecting 2008 to be the year. I expect to be paying around $400 for a 30 inch high definition (1080) wide screen digital tv in one year. It will happen. It's got to happen. Please happen.
